It's valid Haskell 98 as far as I know. Advantages of listing the extensions used are * Cabal knows whether hugs, for example, can compile the package * Assuming hugs can compile it, you don't have to have give a different flag to enable extensions in hugs * It allows us to see, by querying hackage, which extensions are used a lot and which are not used at all.
